Tom_ Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Afternoon all, I picked this up today in a flea market, the seller had no idea where it came from as it was in the place when she took it over. So sorry I have zero info. It seems to be a real fossil and not a fake, even if it isnt real I only paid a few pounds for it! Cheers in advance.

Fossildude19 Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Not seeing any pictures on my end. EDIT: Apparently, these are linked thru some photo sharing site that is blocked where I work.

snolly50 Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 I note you are in England, but your piece has the appearance of a White River Formation fossil from the USA. It seems to be an Oreodont mandible. Edit: It is most assuredly real, that is, an authentic fossil.

fossilized6s Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Definitely Oreodont. ~Charlie~ "There are those that look at things the way they are, and ask why.....i dream of things that never were, and ask why not?" ~RFK ->Get your Mosasaur print ->How to spot a fake Trilobite ->How to identify a CONCRETION from a DINOSAUR EGG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miocene_Mason Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Oreodont and real, nice for a few pounds! “...whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been and are being evolved.” ~ Charles Darwin Happy hunting, Mason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
